• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stardew Valley enters the third dimension thanks to this in-development mod that even comes with VR functionality⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  This is one of those projects that while I think its pointless, and probably makes a near perfect game worse. I’m happy the people doing it are having fun with it. (at least I hope they are)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve Gives The Green Light to Install SteamOS On Desktops To Create Our Own Steam Machines⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep. I think its actually pretty ideal for a pure gaming machine that lives under the TV. If I were going to build a machine for that I would go with SteamOS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CD Projekt boss "knows for a fact" a surge of games made purely with generative AI are coming, but doubts "whether this is really the path to follow"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sadly, if large studios and popular IPs use it. A lot of people will still give them money for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Got my Steam Controller guys! Ain't she a beaut 🤩⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I loved mine. I used it until it died. Took a bit to get used to it. But when it died on me it took even longer to get used to a regular controller again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Game] Subnautica 2 Is Steam Deck Verified⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A rock solid 24fps is totally playable for all but the twitchiest shooters for me. Its the cinema framerate aferall. Its when it stutters or dips that its dramatically worse than a 60fps dipping down to 45.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta Is Warned That Facial Recognition Glasses Will Arm Sexual Predators⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t even get why anyone thinks they are cool. They don’t even have displays in them. I would understand for smart glasses with no cameras, but the ability to display a HUD with navigation, music info, text messages, etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord faces backlash over age checks after data breach exposed 70,000 IDs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I had the same issue the other day when I tried to check it out. I think they don’t like VPNs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AMD say the Steam Machine is "on track" for an early 2026 release⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They explicitly said it has user upgradeable ram. The graphics card is soldered on though. Its basically gaming laptop hardware.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon unveils prototype AI smart glasses for its delivery drivers⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  One of my best friends is an Amazon delivery driver. This is just going to make his miserable job even more miserable.
